Reader’s question
"I am asking for help. All my furniture is dark brown in a simple line. What color to paint my walls to match my furniture? What color curtains should I do and which color of carpet should I choose?”

Our recommendations
Basically dark furnishings give the space a deep, rich, and warm feeling. If you like to avoid domination of beige-brown colors in the space, which may be monotonous, you can choose walls color, curtains and carpets in shades harmonizing with the dark brown furniture and proportionate to the room size and brightness.
Curtains
Curtains in red or purple or blue shade create a pleasant, warm atmosphere and add elegance to the room.

Carpets
Plain or patterned in earth tones carpet can be combined with those drapes.
Walls
You can paint the walls pale or dark colors in combination with curtains and carpets.

Red curtains- chocolate rugs -blue walls (light tone) or royal blue (dark tone)
